After We Fell is by no means a perfect film and that may sound harsh, but this is Fangirlish, and we don’t sugarcoat anything. I am not trying to tell you what to think about this film, I’m simply giving my take on it. With a runtime of 1 hour and 38 minutes (the shortest runtime since the After films began), Castille did the best she could. However, the first half of the film is a bit of a jumble and goes around in circles.Īfter We Collided ended with Hardin and Tessa running into her dad Richard as they left the tattoo parlor but, After We Fell starts with Tessa and Hardin inside of the apartment talking to Richard. We have had book Hessa since the beginning of this franchise whether anyone wants to believe it or not. Every one of the films in this franchise made us fall in love with, and invest our time into these characters and that just continued into After We Fell.Īfterand After We Collided had things that were missing or changed and so did After We Fell.

Now that is true, we did get book Hessa in this film but, I also think we got book Hessa in After and After We Collided. Sure, they were different versions of them from directors Jenny Gage and Roger Kumble, but the essence was there. One of the things I have heard lots of After fans say is that Castille gave us book Hessa with After We Fell. Castille Landon, director of the final two installments in this series, had a challenge with this one. We get that it is very difficult to adapt a book for the screen and After We Fell was certainly not an easy book to bring to life. It is after all one of the longest books in Anna Todd’s series at 834 pages. As a fan of this book series, before the film even came out, I found myself wondering just how any director would tell this story.

The third film in the After franchise based on the books by New York Times bestselling author Anna Todd, was good but it fell short in a lot of ways.

After We Fell is finally out in the United States and can we say it was worth the wait? Yes and no.
